Hi, all! I'm just wondering the year Lara was born. I read somewhere it was 1965 and then I read on another website it was 1968. And now... I just heard somebody claim it's 1969. LOL. Which is it? I need to get the so-called facts straight about Lara's D.O.B. :rolleyes: ;)

Back in the days of TR 2/3, the official Eidos Tomb Raider website listed her birthday as Feb 14, 1968.

I suspect she is about to undergo a comic book sort of metamorphasis in her official backstory, so that she will remain forever young. :)

The AOD styleguide actually says on the Date Of Birth line that it's impolite to ask a lady. :D :thumbsup:

I suppose if she was born in 1968 and TR was released 1997, the age they decided for her would be 29 and since shes fictional this is her immortal age. Its not like 10 years have passed in gametime.. 7 games later.

So shes 29! :D Coincidenally Angelina Jolie is 30 this year.

Thanks for the pic, Goran. :) I think it's smart for us to not know Lara's year of birth, if you know what I mean.

But can somebody explain those 'vital statistics' to me? I can make neither head nor heels of them. :confused:
